The Effect of Remittance, Consumption, and FDI on Economic Growth in ASEAN Countries

One of the main indicators seen in reviewing the relationship between international workers and economic growth is remittances. Remittances obtained from workers abroad are one of the major sources of finance for developing countries. Remittances are also a source of finance in increasing migrant household incomes which encourage improved consumption which will affect economic growth. This study was conducted to explore the impact of migrant remittances, consumption and FDI on economic growth in 10 ASEAN countries using annual panel data from 2015-2019. This study uses panel data regression analysis with the Random Effect Model (REM) approach. The results showed that remittances, consumption and FDI positively and significantly contributed to economic growth in 10 ASEAN countries. Significant contribution of migrant remittances in economic growth if their use is directed to more productive sectors such as use in the investment sector can help the economies of ASEAN countries to maintain and increase economic growth. The government needs to improve the quality of migrant workers through education because a high level of education will affect the level of wages received by migrants and will have an impact on increasing remittances. The limitation in this study is the use of limited data, for 2020 it is not included in the data set used in the analysis. For this reason, further research should use 2020 data because in 2020 there be a new phenomenon, namely COVID-19 which can be traced to the impact of this phenomenon on remittances. Keywords: Remittances, Migrant, Economic Growth, Panel Dat

Analisis Efektivitas Biaya Penggunaan Antidiabetik Metformin Dan Glimepirid Pada Pasien Diabetes Melitus Tipe II Di RSUD Caruban Madiun Tahun 2016

Indonesia ranks 4th in the world as the country with the highest number of Diabetes Melitus (DM) patien. This leads to increased use of antidiabetic. The existence of cost effectiveness analysis is required to assist the decision making process of effective antidiabetic selection in terms of costs. The purpose of this study was to compare the cost and effectiveness of antidiabetic use in patients with type II diabetes in outpatient installation of Caruban Madiun Hospital in 2016 using ACER and ICER method. This research is a non experimental study with retrospective time dimension without any treatment or intervention in patients at RSUD Caruban Madiun at 2016. DM patient data obtained from medical record installation and financial verification section. Data taken for this cost effectiveness analysis are data on the effectiveness of antidiabetic drug therapy and direct medical costs. The results of this study can be concluded that the most cost-effective antidiabetik is glimepirid with the value of ACER 67.935 and ICER value -13.529,92

PENERAPAN SISTEM LEISA (Low External Input and Sustainable Agriculture) TERHADAP PERTUMBUHAN DAN PRODUKSI RUMPUT RAJA (Pennisetum purpupoides) PADA PEMOTONGAN KEDUA

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui penerapan sistem LEISA (Low External Input and Sustainable Agriculture) terhadap pertumbuhan dan produksi Rumput Raja (Pennisetum purpupoides) pada pemotongan kedua. Penelitian ini menggunakan stek Rumput Raja, pupuk N, P, dan K, pupuk kandang, CMA dan alat-alat pertanian. Metode yang diterapkan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode eksperimen dengan Rancangan Acak Kelompok (RAK) dengan 5 perlakuan dan 4 ulangan. Perlakuan dosis yang diberikan adalah: A (100% N, P, dan K), B (100% N, P, dan K + Pukan ), C (25% N, P, dan K + Pukan + CMA), D (25% N, P, dan K + CMA) dan E (Pukan + CMA). Data diolah dengan sidik ragam. Hasil analisis ragam dalam penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pengaruh antara perlakuan berbeda tidak nyata (P>0.05) terhadap pertumbuhan dan produksi Rumput Raja. Tinggi tanaman berkisar dari 3.155 - 3.245 m, panjang daun 1.26 - 1.32 m, lebar daun 5.00 - 5.17 cm, jumlah anakan 18.25 - 22.75 batang/rumpun, persentase batang 73.76 - 77.61%, diameter batang 2.35 - 2.60 cm, produksi segar 97.43 - 127.73 ton/ha/panen, dan produksi bahan kering 15.87 - 26.22 ton/ha/panen. BCR antar perlakuan juga menunjukkan pengaruh yang berbeda tidak nyata (P>0.05). BCR berkisar dari 6.48 – 8.65. Dari penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa dalam penanaman Rumput Raja menggunakan sistem LEISA menghasilkan produktivitas (pertumbuhan dan produksi) yang sama dengan penggunaan dosis 100% rekomendasi pupuk N, P, dan K (200 kg/ha Urea, 150 kg/ha SP-36, 100 kg/ha KCl). Kata kunci : CMA, (Pupuk N, P, dan K), Pukan (pupuk kandang), Pertumbuhan dan Produksi, Rumput Raja (Pennisetum purpupoides
